Call to Photographers – ArtDC

Come closer. Strip away the distractions, fill the frame. ArtDC want to see your most revealing portraits. Vulnerable or intense, the composition is so tight that the entire head cannot be seen. Emotion lives within the confines of your face. Let’s emove all distractions. Remove the world, the body, our outfits, differences and display photographs composed of nothing but the face or a fraction thereof.

ArtDC is working with Art League member Pamela Viola to curate an exhibition entitled “Closer.” The show will include the work of a group of 5 photographers depicting the impact of macro compositions on portraits.
